Microsomal glutathione transferase 1 is not S-nitrosylated in rat liver microsomes or in endotoxin challenged rats.

In vitro activation of purified rat microsomal glutathione transferase 1 (MGST1) by S-nitrosylation has been recently reported. This study was designated to explore its in vivo relevance. Unexpectedly, we failed to detect S-nitrosylated MGST1 in rat liver microsomes treated with S-nitrosoglutathione (GSNO); neither did we observe MGST1 S-nitrosylation in endotoxin challenged rats. However, by using matrix-assisted laser dissociation/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), we identified several other proteins which are susceptible to S-nitrosylation in liver microsomes, including retinol dehydrogenase type I (RODH I), aldolase B, cytochrome P4502C11, and peroxiredoxin 1. Our results suggest that MGST1 S-nitrosylation is unlikely to be involved in the protection mechanism against nitrosative stress caused by endotoxin challenge. Further studies on the novel S-nitrosylable microsomal proteins are also warranted.

P17 Pharmacology in the integrated course ＂Basic Medical Sciences＂ in Zhejiang University School of Medicine

According to traditional teaching mode, the courses in preclinical medicine including pharmacology are separately run. This mode causes a series of disadvantages including loose connection between knowledge in different disciplines and weak ability to bridge basic preclinical knowledge and clinical practice. In order to overcome the disadvantages and promote the teaching efficiency, we constructed a new integrated course-Course of Basic Medical Sciences, which includes 6 traditional courses, anatomy, histology and embryology, physiology, pathology, pathophysiology and pharmacology. We integrated these courses based on the human organ systems and according to the principle-＂ From macro to micro, From morphological to functional, From normal to abnormal and From disease to drug therapy＂ and published the series of textbook in 2004. The contents of pharmacology are taught just after pathology and pathophysiology in every organ system. In comparison with the traditional teaching mode, teachers of pharmacology need not spend a lot of time to review preceding knowledge of anatomy and histology, physiology, pathophysiology and pathology. This is helpful in saving time and improving the teaching efficiency.     

Tissue-engineered trachea: History, problems and the future.

This review tries to summarize the efforts over the past 20 years to construct a tissue-engineered trachea. After illustrating the main technical bottlenecks faced nowadays, we discuss what might be the solutions to these bottlenecks. You may find out why the focus in this research field shifts dramatically from the construction of a tubular cartilage tissue to reepithelialization and revascularization of the prosthesis. In the end we propose a novel concept of 'in vivo bioreactor', defined as the design of a perfusion system inside the scaffold, and explain its potential application in the construction of a tissue-engineered trachea.

胸腰段椎间盘突出症诊断的临床研究

目的探讨胸腰段椎间盘突出症临床表现的特点与规律，提高胸腰段椎间盘突出症的诊断水平。方法回顾性分析1995年9月～2004年1月我院经X线、CT、MRI及手术证实的胸腰段椎间盘突出症65例的临床资料，并将其分为低位胸椎组（T10-T12L1）43例，高位腰椎组（L1-2-L2-3）16例，多节段突出组6例。结果躯体感觉障碍89．2％（58／65）和下肢无力83．1％（54／65）是最多见的症状。9．2％（6／65）表现为上运动神经元损害，47．7％（31／65）表现为下运动神经元损害，43．1％（28／65）表现为上、下运动神经元混合性损害。仅3例为单根神经根损害，其余表现为多根神经或马尾神经的损害。腰背痛44．6％（29／65）和下肢无力40．0％（26／65）是最常见的首发症状。低位胸椎间盘突出以混合性运动神经元损害为主，占58．1％（25／43），易导致行走障碍、足下垂、下肢肌张力升高和病理征阳性；而高位腰椎间盘突出则以下运动神经元损害为主，占93．8％（15／16），易造成腰背、下肢疼痛及马尾神经损害。结论胸腰段椎间盘突出症的症状广泛、体征多样，当临床上存在以下情况时应高度怀疑胸腰段椎间盘突出症：①大腿前方、外侧或腹股沟部位出现感觉障碍者；②下肢无力，股四头肌，胫前肌肌力减退者（如足下垂）；③下肢运动或感觉障碍范围广泛、不规则，缺乏根性分布特征者；④上、下运动神经元损害同时存在，或虽表现为下运动神经元损害，但难以用低位腰椎间盘突出症解释者。

脑血管意外尿失禁的机制探讨

目的探讨脑血管意外引起尿失禁的可能机制。方法对42例诊断为脑血管意外伴有尿失禁的患者进行尿动力学检查(包括静止期尿道压测定、充盈期及排尿期膀胱尿道功能测定)并按Burney分类进行分析,同时研究病变部位、脑血管意外性质和病变半球侧与尿动力学的关系。结果42例脑血管意外患者中,表现为逼尿肌反射亢进者31例(73.8%):其中外括约肌无抑制性松弛19例(45.2%),逼尿肌-外括约肌不协调3例(7.1%),逼尿肌-外括约肌协调9例(21.4%);逼尿肌反射减低,外括约肌协调者11例(26.2%);无逼尿肌功能正常者。发生膀胱顺应性减低5例(11.9%),发生尿感缺失者11例(26.2%)。初感尿容量(140.00±46.97)ml;膀胱最大容量(293.20±60.71)ml;最大尿道闭合压(65.14±19.83)cmH2O。逼尿肌最大收缩力(Pdetmax)为(60.98±31.11)cmH2O;最大尿流率时逼尿肌压力(Pdet-Qmax)为(35.98±17.46)cmH2O;逼尿肌收缩时间(Tcon)为(86.07±36.09)sec;最大流量(Qmax)为(9.02±5.62)ml/s。中风后尿失禁患者其发病部位多见于基底节、皮层多灶以及额顶叶,脑出血与脑梗塞患者的尿动力学表现无明显差异,左右半球病变对尿动力学也无明显差异。结论脑血管意外后尿失禁的尿动力学异常主要为逼尿肌反射亢进,部分出现逼尿肌反射减弱,但感觉正常,感觉缺失者较少见;外括约肌功能以无抑制性松弛为主,其次为逼尿肌-外括约肌协调,少数出现不协调;较少出现膀胱顺应性降低。
